Oh, sorry I was on my itouch and that was supposed to be a longer post.
I meant to also add:
"Regardless, being stoned 24/7 would severally limit the ability of the hippocampus and perhaps effect crystalline knowledge and the interpretation of fluid intelligence. Weed is a drug, lets not forget that people."
You were right in a way, just in a very basic way, I guess I was just being a dick if you look at it that way. I understand your point. The pruning and "regrowth" of neurological pathways isn't what makes us mature, it's a compound of many psychological standpoints, not just a behavioral view [essentially what you are saying/linking] but also Gestalt psychology as well. As I said, I guess I was just being a smartass (see avatar). If you were stoned 24/7 as a child, you are right, it would certainly cause dementia or some sort unless the mind adapted, which I believe it could. At this point though, it's only theory, as the psych-database has no studies on long-term effects on children and cannabis, at least nothing to the nature of what we are discussing.

This is how people learn new things and mature over time.
